Dayong Nu sentenced to death

That night, someone came to Prince Yuanzheng's palace.

After discussing with Yan Yun and Su Rao for a long time, they left at night.

After he left, the two of them stood side by side by the window, looking at the bright moon in the sky. Surao said, "Are you almost ready?"

"Ah."

Yan Yun said warmly: "We should enter the palace at dawn."

"Many more people will die..."

Su Rao is disappointed.

"Sacrifice is inevitable. As long as we can quell the chaos this time, that will be enough."

"What's going on with that edict?"

Su Rao looked at Yan Yun, and Yan Yun pursed her lips. After a moment, she said lightly: "I discussed the matter with that person. The person behind the scenes deliberately exposed his life experience, and pushed Li Yu out. He wanted to protect the country, and the courtiers discussed it. Chu Shi often used his personal background to speak out, but we didn't know who was on whose side in the court, so we resorted to this method."

"Use this edict to intensify the conflicts in the court, judge who is a friend and who is an enemy, and then catch them all in one fell swoop?"

"Well, it's just that neither he nor I expected that when Yu Gang was killed during the sacrifice at the Temple of Heaven, he died unexpectedly, and this edict became a posthumous edict..."

With no one in charge of the power they were fighting for, the chaos in the court became even greater.

Lu Chuqing and others had been planning this move for many years and were eager to push Li Yu to the top. They also used Yu Shi to make a fuss about his life experience and suppressed him everywhere.

Being excluded, he unexpectedly saw things more clearly.

"Of the eight commanders of the imperial army, they control five. The remaining three are missing, two are missing, and one has a broken leg and is recuperating at home. In this way, all the soldiers and horses of the imperial army are under their control."

Su Rao said worriedly: "Once the palace gate is locked, even if the soldiers and horses of each yamen are there, they will not be able to rush into the palace city for a while."

"When the officials are inside, we and Xie Yin alone will not be able to protect so many people. Have you thought of a countermeasure?"

"You forgot the most important thing."

"what?"

Yan Yun said: "The secret path."

"Are you talking about the secret passage that the eldest princess used to escape from the palace? The Imperial Army knows this and that route is no longer safe."

"There are other ways."

"The emperors of the Great Yong Dynasty and the commanders of the Inkstone Washing Platform all have this secret passage in their hands. Only two of them know it. Emperor Qian Ding told me in advance that I will let the shadow lead the Inkstone Washing Platform and the masters in the palace from those two passages in advance. Road to the palace."

No wonder the news found out during this period was serious, but he never had much emotional fluctuations. It turned out that he had been prepared for it.

Su Rao's heart dropped, "That side of the palace city..."

"The number of people they can control is limited. I have asked the Yan and Cui family's hidden informants to act secretly. By then, they will kill the traitors and stabilize the situation."

"Yan and Cui need to be more careful."

"I have sent a message to them, they will be careful."

Su Rao said: "There are also His Highness and the Princess..."

After the imperial edict was passed, Li Yu and Princess Yunle moved out of the East Palace and moved to Qingyun Palace. They secretly sent people to protect them to prevent anyone from doing evil.

"rest assured."

Yan Yun only had two simple words, but it was as calming as if he could see the ending at a glance. Surao breathed a long sigh of relief and had no sleep all night.

Wait until dawn to change into court clothes.

The two looked at each other, got into the car and drove towards the palace. Today, the new emperor ascended the throne. There were three or four times more soldiers and horses in Shengjing than usual, and patrols came one after another.

The carriage arrived at the middle gate, and after getting off the carriage, other courtiers also arrived.

They each bowed to each other, and then headed towards the Golden Palace together.

At this time, each camp was clearly defined and they were walking in groups. Xun Qi walked beside Su Rao and asked in a low voice: "Master Su, when I entered the palace, I saw a figure moving on the tower, like an archer." "Really not." Problem?"

"Master Xun, just watch the show with peace of mind."

Su Rao's words gave him confidence, and Xun Qi's expression immediately improved.

When they arrived at the Golden Palace, the ministers stood in rows. Lu Chuqing read the edict of succession in public, then read a long series of difficult and unfamiliar congratulations, and finally respectfully invited the new emperor.

Everything went smoothly.

When it finally came time for the ministers to bow down, a censor stood up and said, "Wait a minute."

"Master Huang, what day is it today? You dare to talk nonsense and still don't back down."

"Do you, my colleagues, really want to accept a person of unknown origin as our monarch?"

The officials were in commotion.

"presumptuous."

Lu Chuqing shouted, "Your Majesty is the blood of the late emperor. He has been sacrificed to heaven and earth and written into the royal family tree. How can you allow you to slander him? Come and drag him out!"

The imperial guards immediately entered the palace.

He pulled the censor and walked out. Everyone was silent and talked in low voices. Huang Yushi shouted heartbreakingly: "He is just a bastard. He is not of the blood of the late emperor at all..."

"continue."

Lu Chu had a cold face and nodded slightly to Li Yu to reassure him, and then made a gesture. Just as the eunuch was about to speak, the other censors looked at each other and stood up one after another, "Master Lu, the punishment cannot be punished. This It's a rule set by the late emperor. Since Huang Yushi has said it, it stands to reason that he should be allowed to finish his words before discussing the crime. When will the Great Yong Court stop allowing Yan Guan to speak?"

"Yes, it is unfair for Mr. Lu to act like this."

"The late emperor loved His Highness Li Yun the most. This edict of passing the throne is really suspicious. Who knows if it has been tampered with? How can he, a man with no talent and no virtue, be the monarch of this world?"

"Man Shanda is right."

"..."

Seeing the people standing up louder and louder, the scene suddenly became chaotic. Lu Chuqing looked cold and said angrily: "What are you going to do? Are you going to rebel?"

"The late emperor was merciful and indulged you censors too much. He made you lawless and dared to openly slander His Majesty. Come and drag them out, drag them all out!"

The Imperial Guard is about to take action again.

The courtiers were restless. They looked at the approaching Forbidden Army and shouted loudly: "Lu Chuqing, what do you mean? The Forbidden Army is His Majesty's personal guard. When will it be dispatched by you? I think you are going to rebel!"

"You have worked so hard on the new emperor's enthronement, and the new emperor obeys your words and is very close to you. Do you dare to say what your intentions are?"

"In the past, there was a saying of leading the emperor to command the princes. Could it be that you also want to imitate your predecessors and become the uncrowned king of the world?"

"..."

They struggled hard and yelled.

The Imperial Guards dragged them out and were about to go out when they were stopped by Li Yun and Su Rao who were standing in front. Others also lined up to block the palace door.

Lu Chuqing squinted his eyes to examine the scene, "Li Yun, is this all your idea?"

"Before I answer, please look at something first."

Yan Yun took out a stack of papers and two memorials from his sleeves, and held them in front of the ministers, "These were partly found in the study of the family in Kangmao County. It is said that they were written by the gentleman who invited Li Yu to teach him how to read when he was young. .”

"And the other part, you all know."

"It's a memorial from Mr. Lu. Coincidentally, the handwriting on the two items is exactly the same."

He handed the things to several grand masters and cabinet ministers.

As they compared and passed it around, Lu Chuqing's pupils shrank, "It's impossible."
